MOLESKINE:
F3 Nashville has been without a 3rd F Q for a while. The SLT is now focused on growing the 3rd F. 3rd F is how HIMs are engaging with their community physically through service as well as emotionally and spiritually. Questions to consider: How do you serve your community? What are your daily spiritual habits? How are you creating meaningful connection in your community to grow emotionally and spiritually?

We men spend a lot of time hiding what’s on our hearts and minds. If you heard something today during our COT, reach out and mention it to the person you heard it from. Share how it resonated with you, share how you’re thinking about them, or encouraging them, or praying for them. Studies show that men engage in meaningful conversation while doing activities. Invite a HIM on a hike, invite him to work on a project with you, invite him out for a beer.
Whatever it is, let’s practice getting connected. It makes us better men which in turn affects our loved ones and our communities for the better.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: oh my God so many

Q: princessaurora

COUNT: 10
The year is 1502. On this day, in the city of Bologna, Italy, a boy by the name of Uno Boncompagni is born. He will go on to study and teach law before he is summoned to Rome by Pope Paul III and appointed first judge of the capital. Uno’s administrative strengths will allow him to rise through the ranks of the Catholic Church, resulting in his eventual election to the papacy in 1572. Ever the patron of the arts and sciences, Uno will use his position to commission a modified version of the Julian calendar 10 years later. More closely approximating the solar year and properly spacing leap years, it will go on to become the most widely accepted calendar in the world.

523 years later, Uno Boncompagni is better known by his assumed name, Pope Gregory XIII, after whom the Gregorian calendar is named.

The story of Pope Gregory XIII had everything to do with January 7 and nothing to do with any of the workout, save for a few cleverly named exercises. Sometimes you just want to Q something that works!
